The mud just keeps on flying.
 
1) I too disagree with Paul's policy position that the federal government
should not be trusted to do for gay marriage rights what it's done for
substance use and campaign speech and warrantless monitoring and gun rights
and "hate crimes" and reproductive technology and digital copying
technology.  But it's untenable -- and malicious -- to say that this
disagreement about how to protect liberty from the federal government makes
such a policy position "homophobic".
 
2) I haven't heard of a single LP supporter of Paul who explicitly
"embraces" Paul's position on defederalizing the protection of gay marriage
rights -- as opposed to explaining how it is not "homophobic".  I dare you
to quote such an LP supporter.  With the possible exception of Anthony
Gregory, I doubt you can.

I'm not asking you to accept Ron Paul's views on marriage regulation (I sure
don't), or even to support his candidacy.  I'm just asking you to stop lying
about him.
